Amazing as usual Michael! I have the current record for leaving baseboards removed, which is 6 years. I'll get them back in any day though... 🙄
Hahaha!
I just put 3/4 of mine in my mudroom after 4 year's 😂
You gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers
Too true. I'm at 14 years and figure I'll just wait till next time the flooring needs to get replaced or we move out. Lol
I’ve got you beat! It’s been about 9 years for me. Ugh. 😅 Although, I see rolandrivard has me beat with 14 years. I’m clearly not as advanced in my procrastination skillset as I thought. 😂
the transition piece was SO impressive, wow
I literally came to the comments to say the same thing. like holy cow wow!
Love when they hit you with the "Who the hell worked on this" and you're just like " 🙂"
Nothing a visitor coming to get things done! 😂
Truth!!
Could have been worse; a mother-in-law visit combines motivation and inspection all in one!
😂😂 this. I was just about to say it
Dude. That transition alone is enough of a standing ovation. Incredible work on that. And everything.
These multipart renovation series are some of my favorite things to watch on RUclips. I really enjoyed this and the one from Modustrial Maker.
I've learned so much!
Me too! I also enjoy the scott brown carpentry
I’ll add Johnny Brooke (crafted workshop) and Perkins builder brothers to the list😊
Absolutely awed by the process and result of those ebonized transition strips.
My parents bought their house in the 70s and it was all carpet too. Sometime mid 80s they decided to get rid of the carpet and found a beautiful mahogany parquet floor underneath.
Nothing like having guests over to motivate you to get your house in order 😂
I honestly did not expect you get as much done as you did! Amazing job as always, except maybe for the initial floor sanding 😜
Woodworkers darken wood by reacting iron in solution with tannins in the wood to form blue-black phenolate complexes, a process called ebonizing. According to the literature, the darkness and color are controlled by the tannin concentration (higher, darker) and the counterion of iron (acetate, darker). By combining steel wool (iron ions) with vinegar (acetate ions), you create the darkest phenolate complexes even with low iron (II) acetate concentrations.
It's basically the same principle as iron gall ink, where you combine iron salts with tannic acid to get blue-black ink.
Before you do the sauna, double glaze those windows? ;)
That oddly shaped door transition piece is the only project I've ever seen on this channel that I've done a version of! Mine sucked compared to yours. Everything looks great
For future reference for tiling over old concrete- use an uncoupling membrane (Ditra/ Strata-Mat/ SuperSeal). It really helps with preventing crack formation in the grout and tile - especially when you need to patch/fill areas before tiling. Great progress on the remodel!
I like to tile the whole kitchen / bathroom floor in case any changes are made later on. I feel like the time saved not fitting tile more than makes up for the added material cost.
Nooo! Not fiber glass. It's so bad to work with. Rockwool, cellulose or even whool insulation is better then fiber glass. You should also have insulated the top of the attic. You put on a membrane on the celingand then you spray the insulation in the cavity. Having an insulated attic space is so much better. Especially the times when you need to work up there pulling wires for electrical or networking or just as storage for using once a year stuff etc. It also makes your heating more efficient since it will be more insulated from the cold during winter etc.
Lots of options were considered. Most others were super cost prohibitive. Insulating the top of the roof changes the ventilation and there’s a lot that needs to be done to make that work.
As someone who had oak floors for 15 years, I can definitely say that they needed to be refinished and the crew did a great job. I also immediately said that the wood transition from tile to tile was a weird way to go given that you could have just angled/mounded your thinset and beveled the tile edges to make the transition but you did a great job making a finishing your wood transition. Still not sure I would have made the same choice but it doesn’t look bad which is what I was expecting.
The hardwoods are something special! I can’t believe ppl would cover that up 🤦🏻♀️ but you’ve done that little house justice and I can’t wait for the next! The tile looks great, of course my favorite part besides seeing your floors transform was making the custom transition piece from tile to hardwood. Very informative as always! I look forward to all the custom builds
At one point in time wood floors were the cheep option, and carpet was the expensive option. Lots of housing stock this age would have had been built with hardwood floors that were then upgraded to carpet.
25:30 "nothing left to do but to do it" i should hold onto that one. that's a good mantra
Love the Call Me Maybe channel!!!! Can't wait to see your vid! Great job on the house!!!
"livable" - spends 20% of video working on the shape/color of the transition. 😜looks great!
If anyone's looking for it, it's Call Me Maibe. Michael, consider putting a link in the description? If you did, sorry i missed it.
I put a link in the video. It’s now added to the description. Thanks for letting me know it was missing 🙌
Man, I am so happy you kept those wood floors. Exceptional work by the guys, and a great result.
When I want to distress wood Micheal, I go to GNC and buy a bottle of iron pills. I crush them up and put into hot water. It works awesome. The amount of iron you use determines the look. I’ve matched up weather warn wood after I’ve cut it down and you can’t tell difference after I brushed on and let dry
I'm getting real Technology Connections vibes from the AC/Heat Pump unit from the sponsor. And that's a good thing! I'm glad to see more folks repping such wonderful options for heating and cooling.
I know most people like everything you can see in a remodel, but I'm weird because I like structure. I'm always fascinated by the architecture of places. Why were certain decisions made? How is that held together? That kind of thing. Most remodel RUclipsrs gloss over that and prefer only the big reveal.
Amazing, Ishitani Furniture and you launched videos using the same technique days apart (although they used rusty nails besides the wool, and left it for way longer).
Isn’t amazing how a deadline helps focus on the task at hand? I can really procrastinate so setting deadlines really helps me get things done
I think the dye in the concrete is the same or equivalent to the red Frank Lloyd Wright used in his concrete pads. It’s dyed through. I forget the company name.
Interesting!
Looking so good! Good call on hiring out the floor sanding 😂
We did our best 😂
So, when's the sauna build planned?
Awesome job, Michael!
Justin time!
My favorite part of this video? Honestly, it's that you're wearing proper knee-pads while doing the tile work. I can't even tell you how many maker-channel things I see (cough cough laura kampf cough cough) where somebody is down on their knees for hours on a hard surface, and I know what kind of damage that does. Good on ya for using the IMO unsung hero of the PPE world.
Great video! I would have been concerned about the silica dust created while sanding down the concrete. I would have worn a full PVE suit and wet the concrete as you were grinding.
The refinished wood floors are stunning. Absolute work of art.
RAMBOARD!! heck yeah! Here in Greer, SC, my wife manages just about everything about producing and shipping that stuff across the planet.
When prepping your kitchen for cabinets does it matter if you tile the entire floor before using a kick board or adjustable feet for your cabinets , trying to problem solve this for my kitchen my house is on a concrete slab
Interessting to see the insulation with fiberglas. In Germany we do that with Stuff made from old Newspapers...
Nice Video. Congratulations!
Couple things I went through renovating my 1948 house in Oregon. I did a 18k unit upstairs in our house as well. I also wall mounted it outside at first and about a year later put it on the ground outside as the condenser would straight up vibrate the whole house when running ac or heat (heat was worse) was super annoying as it was a really low freq vibration maybe 50hz
Lastly I have noticed that mine is probably short cycling in the summer when running ac and sometimes causing more humid problems than removing humidity. So just keep an eye on humidity! Oh also clean the fan fins yearly they will get moldy…fun stuff…
It's so good to have a deadline. and I echo the comment by @ryebread6790 - the transition piece is superb. I wonder if in a hundred years from now when someone decides to do another makeover on this house, they'll pull it up and say "They were TRUE craftsmen in those days...". This whole series has been fantastic. Thank you.
The craftsmanship and the creativity involved in making that transition is just unbelievable. What a great job - hopefully 70+ years from now someone will be renovating it all over again and will notice and appreciate the attention to detail and quality.
That push block has seen some shit 😂
Completely forgot about the oak floors! Also, that transition is a thing of beauty - blends in really well while still creating a subtle demarcation between the spaces.
Also, I always love that you show us the process :) Honestly, I wouldn’t mind hearing more about your thought process and decision-making calculus when you run into issues - another more construction-focused channel I follow (Perkins Builder Brothers) sometimes incorporates that and it is always super interesting.
p.s. I know Nothing about concrete, but did you consider wet sanding for that patch of reddish concrete? Considering the asbestos thing you mentioned and the sheer dustiness, it could be appropriate?
These spacers are so wasteful - so much single use plastic when reusable ones are only a few dollars more.
Not quite sure why you didn't use self levelling compound to get level floors either.
Also, fiberglass insulation? YUCK.
Hey Michael, I had no idea your past few videos had anything to do with this renovation. I suggest titling your videos a bit more specifically so it's easier to follow this project.
Fantastic work, Michael! Really well done! 😃
The place is looking fantastic!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Ha! I love that Mike called you out. Bahahahaha! Also, I definitely recommend a sauna for up here in the PNW.
Spectacular! Congrats on all this. Black grout = chef's kiss perfection!
I think its because my weird brain likes contrast, but i would have just oiled/sealed the transition and left it looking like wood.
I'm remodeling my 1939 house and that faux slate might work for me. Is it ceramic or porcelain?
Nice! I got it from Home Depot. I think it’s ceramic but rated for flooring. Made by Daltile
For the price to rent a sander and DIY'it, you will be much happier with the finish if you hire someone with experience, skill, and their own equipment. The difference in cost shouldn't be great, but the results, ahh, that is worth it!
Great sponsor for this one, thanks for going into some detail about how to install the mini split, I've seen them sponsor other people but not shown nearly as much useful information about it.
The self leveling system is very easy, but you need at least 2 wedges on each side. You only did 1 in the middle of some sides and that's why some tiles are not level to each other. Like on the transition where you put the wood transition piece. You can see that the right tile is slightly above the left tile on the wood side.
You didn't compensate for the added height of your tile?? Your appliances are going to be an issue.
I suppose this isn’t quite as deadly as restoring and selling an airplane in two weeks, so I’m cautiously keen on this.
Don’t they sell a dimpled schluter mat for isolating the concrete from the tile work so it doesn’t crack? Like an isolation membrane, I feel like the tile will crack within a year or two
Yup, uncoupling membrane.
who says not to install tile directly to concrete? that's literally what backer board is supposed to mimic. If you're worried about the concrete shifting than use the schluter membrane.
It’s mostly because it was polished concrete. I had to scuff it to give it something to bond to
Love the faux slate tile ! The options for tile these days is amazing - totally agree on the grout colour
This turned out incredible!!!! I would love to see a video of you building something and only using hand tools!
I wonder if those tile thingys would work on wall tile? Great series, loving it.
Terrific job on the oak transition piece. Really well done in all respects.
On the concrete cracks, there is a concrete crack suppression kit that you can use for your project in the future.
that transition would have been dope as an end-grain plywood piece
"I even took the baseboards off for you because I know you hate baseboards" lol
I’d call it the Tronix room for all the electronic projects.
Are you a traveling man, or just a coincidental logo?
I've tiled my kitchen... that was a lot of work.
I’m sure the hand plane is the Veritas #4 Smooth Plane. Small chance is it the Veritas #4 1/2 Smoothing Plane. Huge fan of Veritas tools. Beautiful work. Amazing custom kitchen and surrounding rooms.
7:57 "it'll help asbestos it can" nice unintentional (?) pun!
Looks great!
The kitchen/mudroom floor tiles came out awesome..
I’m curious about how that Mr.Cool mini split system does… I’ve been on a serious hunt the last couple months doing research and shopping… would love one for my shop..
The threshold turned out absolutely beautifully. 👍🏼
Bice job but at some point that door transition is going to need a touch up. It's super high traffic. I'm worried what you'll do about color then. A contrast may have been nice there anyways?
I have the same mix of mostly red oak and some white oak in my living room, laid down in 1944. And then I didn't know that and ordered white oak to flow into the remodeled dining room, and they didn't match. So they had to come back out and basically whitewash the living room so now it all looks like white oak. That was a fun $4000 mistake.
I don't know if it's just me but ever since I was a little kid I have found watching someone hand-plane something to be so satisfying! And there are so few people that actually use them anymore! It makes me sad because they are such tactile tools. 😢
My favorite home reno component name: Schluter Strip. Another awesome video!
That transition step was Amazing work Michael! Really nice touch
the tile self leveler system has existed for well over a decade now, I remember seeing it used on Holmes on Homes back in the early/mid 2010's
There's a better one which is reusable and not much more expensive.
If you want to make the ebonising even darker you can add more tannin to the wood in the form of tea. Giant Catappa leaves are very hight tannin. You make the tea from those. And apply twice.
Impressive work, great results!
Very nice. I am going to be refinishing (again) my kitchen countertops week after next. Whew! I love that tint you made to match the tile. Great color!
You are such an inspiration! Been following for years and its amazing to see your growth! I love the remodel, been getting excited about buying a house and working on some projects of my own! You are the best!!!
27:30 don’t worry, bros gonna be so high from the smell of the poly that he won’t even notice the baseboards are missing after a few hours.
That's a lot to tackle in 3 weeks 😮💨
Thanks for a lovely video. I enjoyed watching the floor work as last week, and the week before I had this done to my house, something very similar, and I was unable to see the work being done.
I have a Mr Cool in my barn and it’s the best!
Such excellent work Michael. You must be thrilled to be so far on. Oooh, she looking Good!
better to butter the back of tiles with thinnest
No hearing protection? Come on son
A sculptor building a transition for his own house will have the best one on the planet!
...but did you have to change the thumbnail and title of the video 3 times?
There's a new option on RUclips of auto testing different thumbnails. 🤷🏼♂️ I wanted to see how it worked. Is it weird?
Oooo I've never seen the wedge style tile leveler. May have to look into that for when we fix the bathroom... again. We laid tile down then after figured out the joist underneath was sagging a lot, like maybe 2-3". We sistered a new joist against it, plus a few others, and it cracked the tile.
Get the reusable one with metal pins instead.
👍 für den Algorithmus
Super impressive!
Michael, that is one awesome looking transition man.
wow, that’s like cheating or something
That wood transition is sick. Best part of the video.
great videos
That transition is just amazing! Wow.
Hopefully, back to wood soon.
RRRR I HATE baseboards!!!!
Классная работа!!!
